Chapter 18

Xiaohong ran back again.

"Miss, the second master is not here, the second wife said please move to the second floor to the west, and the second master will return." Xiaohong said respectfully.

Hui Yi eyebrows glanced out of the hall.

The rain has stopped, the ground is wet, covered with green leaves and white flowers...

She said "hmm" and walked outside.

"Miss!"

Xiaohong called her, went to the closet and found a Guanyin pocket, and put it on for Hui Yimei, "Although the rain has stopped outside, the water in the eaves is really annoying. Miss, wear a Guanyin pocket, be careful not to get wet." hair..."

Hui Yi smiled sweetly.

The master and servant went downstairs and hurried towards the second floor on the west.

The second sister-in-law Hui was listening to records in the house. When she saw Hui Yimei, she flicked the stylus away with a "pop", and then stepped forward to hold Hui Yimei's hand, leading her to sit on the sofa, smiling. He asked, "Has the rain stopped outside? Did it ever rain?"

Hui Yimei also smiled and shook her head, "It's okay."

Second Sister Hui looked at her carefully again, and praised, "There are so many things these days, I haven't had time to take a good look at you... Oh, our little sister has really grown into a big girl! They say daughter Aunt Xiao, you were born so well, in the future... my Jun Zhi will be no worse!"

Hui Yi frowned and smiled, "Are you praising me, or are you praising yourself!"

Second Aunt Hui laughed.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law chatted for a while, and Hui Yimei asked, "Sister-in-law, where is my second brother?"

Second Wife Hui glanced at the door, and said softly, "Stay in the room on the second floor of the east! Hey... the man who came with him, do you know who he is?"

Hui Yimei remembered Henry's bold and direct gaze.

Seeing that Hui Yi's eyebrows remained silent for a long time, Second Wife Hui didn't expect her sister-in-law to know the identity of the distinguished guest.

"His...his maternal grandfather was Prince Zhuang, younger brother of the late emperor of the old dynasty! At that time, the imperial power was overthrown, and the late emperor died in Shangshan when he left the pass. The whole capital was maintained by Prince Zhuang alone. ...It is also thanks to Prince Zhuang who came forward to appease those sons and nobles, so that the coup d'etat was peaceful... That Prince Zhuang has no son, and only an only daughter under his knees. Sent out of the country... The young man who came to our house to join in the fun with your brother yesterday is the only son of Princess Gu Lun..."

Hui Yi's eyebrows were startled!
She didn't expect that Henry was still a nobleman of the previous dynasty in his country.

However, thinking about how he used to be a stranger in Hefu University, always accompanied by bodyguards when he went in and out, Hui Yimei suddenly felt a little relieved.

"This man... It is said that his biological father is unknown, but according to some old friends, his biological father should be the guard next to Princess Gu Lun. However, Princess Gu Lun said that he has never married, so he took the princess's surname , whose surname is Ai... Tell me, if the old dynasty is still there, how can you say that this master is also a county king! It's a pity... there may be such a family left outside the direct line of the former emperor of the old dynasty..." Hui The second sister-in-law sighed and said quietly.

She suddenly changed the subject, "But they are not bad now. I heard that Princess Gu Lun grew up under the protection of the British royal family, and it seems that she was given the title of Countess by the British royal family... Two years ago, Princess Gu Lun I went back to China to visit Prince Zhuang’s grave in person, and the President went to the airport to pick her up in person. It is said that Princess Gu Lun visited the Senate later, and the President asked her to be a consultant..."

Huiyi's eyebrows opened wide.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law were talking here, and the second brother Hui came in from outside.

Seeing Hui Yimei, Second Brother Hui was taken aback for a moment, "Little sister?"

Hui Yimei quickly adjusted her expression, stood up, and said with a smile, "Second brother!"

Brother Hui looked at her, smiled and said to his wife, "...Look! There is a beautiful woman in our family!"

Second Wife Hui also covered her mouth and smiled.

Hui Yimei only felt that her face was burning and she said angrily, "Second brother, you haven't seen me in how many years, and you make fun of me as soon as you meet!"

Looking at the expressions of the second brother and the second sister-in-law, Hui Yimei knew very well that in fact, the two of them knew exactly what they wanted to say when they came here; so Hui Yimei simply talked about her affairs in a calm and generous manner.

"Second brother, to tell you the truth, I don't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing," Hui Yimei said softly, "I want to tell you about the Lin family..."

After speaking, she talked about her attitude towards the Lin family's marriage and her mother's attitude towards the Lin family's marriage after she came back.

Brother Hui didn't say a word, he walked to the table, poured a glass of cold white water, and drank it in one gulp; then he took two glasses again, poured two glasses of water, passed one to his sister, and another to his wife .

Holding the cup, Hui Yimei finished what she wanted to say in one breath, took a sip of water, and said, "I know... I am a girl, no matter how many books I read, I may not be promising in the future, let alone be like a girl. Brothers look good for the family like this..."

"However, our Hui family owes the Lin family, should I pay it alone? The Lin family is not afraid that I will make troubles in heaven after I marry and make their family uneasy?" She pouted like a child, Wronged and angry.

Brother Hui was lost in thought.

Second Wife Hui glanced at her husband, but said nothing.

Hui Yimei continued, "Second brother, I didn't take Joe...I know that the brothers in the family are all decided by their mothers to welcome their sister-in-laws into the door...Look, how good is your mother's vision?" , my sister-in-laws are all capable people, they are caught at home and outside, and everyone is the head of the house...but it's my turn, I..."

Hui Yi's eyebrows suddenly choked up.

After being silent for a while, after she suppressed her emotions, she said in a low voice, "If Lin Zichang..."

As soon as this person's name was mentioned, Hui Yimei felt a little uncomfortable.

"...I don't ask how outstanding he is, but as long as he is a little worried, I have nothing to say..." She said softly, "But look at his attitude... If he likes Hui Why did he provoke Bai Yingying about the marriage of the Lin family? If he really admires Bai Yingying, I don't blame him. As long as he stands upright and says that he doesn't like this marriage, he wants to grow up with Bai Yingying. After a long time, our two families can discuss this matter again... But why doesn't he even dare to say a word against the marriage? A man like him who only dares to hide behind others to uphold justice for himself, I, I... "

Hui Yi's eyebrows choked up several times.

But Brother Hui didn't speak.

The second sister-in-law Hui really wanted to persuade my sister-in-law, but seeing that her husband didn't make any statement, she didn't dare to make a decision easily.

The room was quiet, except for Hui Yimei's soft weeping, and the sound of the floor needle ticking...

Brother Hui sat on the sofa crossing Erlang's legs and said after a long time, "You...do you know Chengxuan?"

Hui Yi froze for a moment.

... Chengxuan?
She suddenly realized that when she first met Henry yesterday, it seemed that the second brother called him "Chengxuan". Maybe Henry's Chinese name is Ai Chengxuan.

"When he saw you yesterday, he was completely dumbfounded," Second Brother Hui said with a smile, "Later, he kept pulling me to find out about you! Did your sister-in-law mention Chengxuan's life experience to you? "

Although Hui Yi blushed a little, she still nodded.

But she doesn't understand...

She was obviously talking about Lin Yuehong with the second brother, but why did the second brother avoid Lin Yuehong and not talk about it, but shifted the topic to Henry?But Hui Yimei still told her brother what she knew about Henry's situation.

"I met him a few times in England. He and I are both studying at Holford University, but they are not in the same department. He seems to have graduated last year, and I will only..."

"He knows you well?" Brother Hui interrupted her.

Hui Yi raised her eyebrows and shook her head, "I don't know."

Brother Hui obviously didn't believe her words.

Hui Yimei had no choice but to explain, "...he came from a prominent background, and he was accompanied by companions when he went in and out; but I am a poor student, so there is no intersection. It's just that when I was in college, I also had black hair and yellow skin. The Chinese have seen each other a few times, but they have not officially known each other, he doesn't even know my name, and I... only know that his name is Henry."

Brother Hui was lost in thought.

At this moment, Hui Yimei already felt that something was wrong...

"George?"

A clear male voice sounded.

Everyone looked up and saw Chengxuan standing at the door of Second Brother Hui wearing a baggy bathrobe, his hair was wet, and he looked as if he had just taken a shower.

Although Hui Yimei has also been a foreigner, a young man with disheveled clothes kept such a close distance from her, which still made her feel a little uneasy.

She lowered her eyebrows, stood up and leaned behind the second sister-in-law.

"Chengxuan, what's the matter? Is it because the family didn't prepare properly? Or is there something unaccustomed to it?" Brother Hui immediately stood up and walked towards him, greeting him cordially.

Ai Chengxuan's eyeballs were firmly stuck to Hui Yimei's body, but he raised the plate in his hand towards Brother Hui, "...this snack is delicious, I finished it by accident... Is there any more?"

Brother Hui didn't care much about the affairs of the back house, so he turned to his wife and said, "Let the kitchen serve some more pastries, ah, prepare more pastries from our hometown, and send them to Chengxuan for him to taste. "

The second sister-in-law Hui and the second brother Hui have been married for many years, and they are also good people. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "This snack is not available in the kitchen!"

Ai Chengxuan and Brother Hui were taken aback.

The second sister-in-law Hui smiled when she had enough of it, "This is prepared by our eldest lady. If you want to eat it, ask her to go!"

Hui Yi glanced at the blue and white porcelain plate in Ai Chengxuan's hand.

"Xiaohong, go back and prepare a snack." She said softly.

Anyone can hear the politeness and alienation in her tone, but Chengxuan still looks very happy.

Xiaohong responded loudly, stepped forward and bent her knees towards Ai Chengxuan, and took the empty plate in his hand.

Ai Chengxuan looked at Hui Yimei fixedly, and suddenly laughed.

"...Hi, Winnie!" He called out her name.

A stiff smile floated on Hui Yimei's face.

He is an honored guest and also her senior, and if they get close carefully, the two families may still have some family friendship.But the second brother didn't introduce him to the two of them, so did she call him Henry?How are you, Brother Ai?Or... Chengxuan?

Before she could figure out how to greet him, he showed her a sunny smile.

"...Long time no see!" Chengxuan greeted her casually and naturally, as if he was an old friend she hadn't seen for a long time.

The shy smile on Huiyi's eyebrow froze instantly.

haven't seen you for a long time?

Just before it rained, he was still standing blankly under the magnolia tree in the yard, and he had been peeping at her for an unknown amount of time!
